Caption:  This bar chart shows vegetation size classes for the Skunk Cabbage Creek Calwater planning watershed (Skunk Cabbage Creek and Redwood Creek estuary). The Calwater had only 27% of the basin in medium-large and greater trees, 36% in small-medium and smaller trees and 38% in non-forest as of 1994. The information was derived from a 1994 Landsat image by the U.S. Forest Service. This analysis technique calculates averages of vegetation stands and is accurate at the stand (30 meters) level. Scroll down for a key to classifications. Click on Picture to see an ArcView screen print of the Calwater planning watershed showing vegetation types. Vegetation is classified according to diameter at breast height (DBH): Giant = >50" DBH, V Large = 40-50" DBH, Large = 30-39.9" DBH, Medium/Large = 20-29.9" DBH, Small/Medium = 12-19.9" DBH, Small = 5-11.9" DBH, Non-Forest = No trees, shrubs, grass, bare soil.
